Adding brick sidewalks and railings

[@Lowart]

I'm currently working on a retrospective of the Archie Sonic comics, including many of the stories you coloured for. While I was doing research for it, I found this channel, and I just wanted to say that I'm really enjoying watching your videos. What you're building here is incredibly cool! Thanks for all your awesome work both here and on the comic!

[@narrowgaugegreg]

how the algorithm sent you here via the archies...

[@JasonJensenTrains]

WOW, I had so much fun Sonic, and some of the other Archie comics. I have 30 years of work in comics. Glad you found my KZbin channel! Thanks for watching!!!

[@ehorlubiansky1830]

Beautiful. Just beautiful. I bow to the Master.

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so very much!!!

[@normg2242]

I totally get the cardboard modeling idea. I build exclusively in cardboard, it must be the cheapest hobby in the world. I built a truck, a trailer and an pioneer tank in 24 scale, the kit was a free download and it took me four years of pure fun to complete...

[@tomschmidt3165]

The sidewalk castings look very similar to the ones that Bar Mills sells. Keep up the great modeling Jason. Your videos have improved my structure modeling skills IMMENSELY!

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much Tom!!! I really appreciate it!

[@jamesfisk2758]

What an excellent comment regarding jumping around the layout. I agree 100%, as modeling skills advance the first section will not show as well as the last. I am going to adopt that strategy... thank you for that.

[@tracyhickman1359]

Incredible scenery just adding to the story and complimenting your amazing structures!

[@pierrecasavant33]

One thing to say, WOW

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much!!!

[@edhorst7212]

This video answered my question of brick sidewalks that I thought I had missed.. Great video, wished you had made molds of sidewalk however..

[@tombarnes7196]

So great when a plan comes together!!

[@bobs3354]

The close-up detail camera work starting at 13:00 is terrific.

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so very much Bob!!!

[@tachi98lep]

Nice close-ups of some of the older buildings and new constructions that you finished in this video! The town is really detailed and incredible when you show it from ground level!

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so very much!!!

[@alexwake850]

Have to say I love seeing close ups across your layout, so cool. There is a real fine balance between different ages of buildings and features such as the sidewalks on your layout. I don't know if paving slabs could be seen in the era of your layout, could include hopscotch chalked by kids or something, maybe cracked and broken, just a thought. 👍❤️🚂

[@paultijink4235]

Hi Jason, some really great close-up shots of the layout. I very much like this style of layout, it's giving me a lot of inspiration for my own layout. Regards, Paul

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much Paul!!! I truly appreciate it!

[@FosScaleModels]

Looking great!

[@narrowgaugegreg]

surprised you have time to comment, don't you have some mailing labels to change?

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much Doug!!! I really appreciate it!

[@narrowgaugegreg]

totally agree about the jumping around thought process. looking forward to seeing the carboard buildings and how you make them appear to be further away.

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much!!! 👍

[@michaelimpey1407]

Jason, the brick sidewalks and railings look amazing. Thank you for sharing your tips and techniques, I really appreciate it. Cheers, and stay safe, Michael

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much Michael!!! I truly appreciate it!

[@toddwiley3043]

The layout just keeps getting more and more amazing Jason. Love that you are working the layout from different areas all at once and Brett and I agree with you that it does help blend together some of the newer with older builds as well as keep the scenery uniform throughout. Smart!

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much Todd!!! Really great to hear from you! 👍

[@calopez2350]

Awesome, looks like real city. Thanks for share Jason. Cesar

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much Cesar!!!

[@anthonyborden2513]

Excellent layout 👌

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much Anthony!!!

[@normg2242]

I just LOVE your music! 😊

[@hectorturner]

Looks great Jason!! Those exact sidewalks you can get from Bar Mills Scale Models.

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much Hector!!! 👍

[@vincenthuying98]

Dear Jason, saw you use those FSM brick sidewalks before. Looks great, although I think even with styrofoam, either scribed or single bricks cut, a similar result can be achieved. Scene really starts to come together now, very cool to see. Love the idea of the cardboard cutouts. Paper is yet another way to expand the modeling possibilities. Although I agree, printed texture often needs some work. Hence, the suggestion to combine it with ways to create the illusion of depth. Whether it’s several layers of cardboard and paper, or combined with foamboard and underfloor insulation to create accents. Very cool vid, looking forward to your next episode. Cheerio

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much Vincent!!!

[@johnschutt9187]

Man, you do superior work! I love your color palate. Thank you for showing us how it's done.

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much John!!! I really appreciate it!

[@johnpandolfino8663]

Looking 👍

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thanks John!!!👍

[@CM-ARM]

Jason I don't know if you already started the trees or not but on the one you talked about taking out the pallet, I wouldn't. The pallet is a catch all of leaves and some trash. Might look good. Anyway keep having fun, Chris

[@keithdenner9441]

Jason, your work is just astonishing!

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much Keith!!!

[@barnyg6804]

Well done mate

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much Barny!!!

[@trainsinpoland]

As always Jason. magnificent modelling. Your eye for detail and artistic talent are second to none. (I know you work as a professional artist ) I think if you ever get short of pocket money you could start giving tours of your exceptional layout. 😁

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much Ian!!! I really appreciate it!

[@joesask857]

very nice thanks man

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you Joe!!!

[@shanetombyll4805]

amazing sir!! you are very talented!hope to get there some day with my layout

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much Shane!!! Thanks for watching and happy modeling! 👍

[@lorenhendrix-og3ky]

Great video Doug.......

[@Daniel-Strain]

Thanks again for sharing this. Your attention to detail is just incredible. The high rises seem like they are going to look great too, can't wait. These scenes remind me of my late father, who was born in 1938. This is what his world looked like growing up. On a side note, I have a question about 13:18. I notice there's a gas pump, presumably for the boats. But underneath one can see there's nothing there. Shouldn't there be some kind of tank or something under the dock, from which the pump is getting the gas?

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much Dyson!!! The project s on the layout are never ending. I have LOTS of unfinished things.

[@scottmccloud9029]

I know I'm late to the party but you could make a mold of those, the make your own the next time you need some.

[@stainlesssteelbunny124]

Great work, I think your ropes are to clean, they need some dirt and weathering. Cheers

[@yrunaked4]

Jason, im not sure what time zone you live in but it must have more hours in it then the rest of us have because you always get so much accomplished. Cheers Rob

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much!!! I always feel like I never get enough done, lol!

[@johnjohnson1709]

All of your models and scenery look so great. My favorite way of seeing a layout is from the perspective of a 1/87th size person. Do you have a small camera to mount on a flat car to run through the layout? Thanks again for sharing your skills.

[@richardking2762]

I think I would have made a mold just as a safety in case I changed my mind later. Way back ibn the olden days there was a company that sold mat board kits called Suydam (sp?)

[@kargandarr]

I would pull up the pallet, put a tree in there and then lean the pallet against that newly installed tree.

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Great idea!!! 👍

[@derricksmith9524]

Amazing you are the G.O.A.T i'd love to do the same type of build only in N scale is that possible?

[@davidaarons2488]

It's been awhile since I watched ya, and your progressing along very well. It looks fantastic and your thought on the fall season for whole layout is a great idea. Have you ever thought of doing a small building under construction?

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much David!!! No money in this town for new construction, lol! 👍

[@markdeschane4467]

Jason, I don't really think that George Selios has anything on you! I like what you do!

[@JasonJensenTrains]

Thank you so much Mark!!! I truly appreciate it!

[@derricksmith9524]

Amazing where can i get that Styrofoam from?is it the same styrofoam that i get from home depot the purple styrofoam with the Pink Panther on it ?

[@ricter591]

I still don't know exactly what to order for piers to put buildings on from Northeastern scale lumber, could you help me out with that, thanks so much for your time.

[@pillaroftruth2830]

who manufactures the vehicles?

[@JasonJensenTrains]

[@redgreen09]
